1 From the Dean s Desk I am consistently inspired by the impact that generations of Baylor Lawyers have had, and continue to have, not just on the legal profession, but also on our state and communities across the nation. This was brought home to me while reading this month s Rocket Docket. In our feature story, you will learn how recent graduate Justin Smith (JD 10) worked to bring Baylor Law School s American Association for Justice Mock Trial team to the federal courthouse in Texarkana, so that 60 local high school students could get a taste of what the legal profession has to offer. Also in this issue we spotlight Wayne Fisher (JD 61), who has received the Outstanding 50 Year Lawyer Award from the Texas Bar Foundation. The award recognizes attorneys whose practices have spanned 50 years or more, and who adhere to the highest principles and traditions of the legal profession and service to the public. Among his many other accolades, Wayne has been recognized by the State Bar of Texas as a Texas Trial Titan. Finally, we say goodbye to one of Baylor Law School s more dynamic alumnus, Arlen Dean Spider Bynum (JD 63). Spider (a name given to him as a young boxer on account of his long, thin arms) passed away on March 25 at age 77. Besides his family, he had two passions in life: the law and boxing. He was a colorful legend in Texas courtrooms and a major figure in the world of professional boxing. A former World Boxing Council Special U.S. counselor, Spider was a strong advocate for boxing safety and was the primary drafter of the Muhammad Ali Boxing Reform Act. He will be greatly missed. Nothing To Mock At: Justin Smith Introduces Texarkana High School Students to Baylor Law s Famed Mock Trial Program On March 4, Baylor Law School s American Association for Justice Mock Trial Team presented a mock trial in Texarkana. The mock trial, organized by Baylor Lawyer Justin B. Smith (JD 10), was hosted by the Texarkana Young Lawyers Association and took place at the federal courthouse there. Federal Magistrate Judge Barry Bryant presided, and the jury was comprised of the entire Sixth District Court of Appeals, Cass County Court at Law Judge Donald Dowd, and two local attorneys. Filling the courtroom to observe the action were local attorneys, members of the community, and 60 local high school students. Smith, who works for the firm Norton & Wood L.L.P., is president of the Texarkana Young Lawyers Association. Smith is a firm believer in Baylor Law s Practice Court program. With this event he hoped to enlighten and educate the young observers about the legal profession and the service element of practicing law.

2 Rocket Docket spoke to Smith about the event. What led you to organize the mock trial? I am the president of the Texarkana Young Lawyers Association. Some months before my term began, the president of a local employment agency approached some attorneys, including a partner at my firm, to see if any of them would be interested in putting on a mock trial for his group members. The partner told me about this, but because it s hard enough to prepare for a real trial, I thought I would reach out to Baylor to see if the Law School would be willing to send a team to practice for this group. Because Texarkana is so far away from Waco, I never thought Baylor Law would be able to send a team. To my surprise and joy, Baylor Law agreed, but the timing wasn t going to work out with the employment agency. However, I thought this would be a great project for our Young Lawyer affiliate, so I applied for (and received) a grant from the Texas Young Lawyers Association and began planning. This seemed like the perfect event for high school students, since they are our future and, for some of them, the future of the legal profession as well. I also knew there would be many students who might be interested in the law and would love to see a mock trial. For them, as well as for the rest of the students, this might be the closest they would get to ever seeing a trial. What do you hope the young observers got out of this event? I hope they realized that practicing law is primarily about service and sacrifice. The judges, the lawyers, the courthouse staff, and the law students each sacrificed their time to make this event a success and to do good for all involved. I also hope they were inspired to pursue a career in the law if called to do so. For those who thought they might want to be lawyers, but after viewing the mock trial had second thoughts, I hope the event helped them to make the right decision. I urge people to choose the legal profession wisely, because far too many go to law school for the wrong reasons and end up miserable. I also hope they walked away with a better understanding of the mechanics of a trial how it works and what it entails. Even though the mock trial was, of course, highly polished, I still hope they realized that a trial is not quite like what they see on television. Why was it so important to you to involve Baylor Law?

3 I am a firm believer in Baylor Law s program and grateful to the Law School for all it has done for me. If I can help the Law School in any way, I d like to do so. I also thought this event would introduce some Baylor Law students to a part of Texas they may never have seen or considered. I am not from Texarkana (nor is my wife, Victoria, who is also a Baylor Lawyer), but I find it to be a challenging and great place to practice law. Attorneys here are usually licensed in at least two states, requiring us to know more law. Also, the small area gives us uncommon access to the judiciary and to each other. I question whether an event like this mock trial would be easily do-able in a large city. I hope the Baylor Law students, therefore, realized the advantages of practicing in a smaller area wherever that may be and will move away from the larger cities to the extent their loans (and significant others!) will permit it. I think they re more likely to be happier practicing law in a smaller town and this comes from a San Antonio native and University of Texas at Austin undergraduate. Do you have plans for any more events involving Baylor Law School? I d love to do regular events with Baylor Law. One part of the event we weren t able to do this time was a moot court performance before the Court of Appeals. If the court and Baylor Law are willing, I d love to make that happen soon. If it lay within my power, I d have Baylor Law mock trial and moot court teams travel to Texarkana regularly and practice before real judges and attorneys. I daresay at the risk of incurring a memo from Professor Gerald Powell that not even Practice Court beats that kind of experience. Texas Bar Foundation Honors Baylor Lawyer Wayne Fisher (JD 61) has received the Outstanding 50 Year Lawyer Award from the Texas Bar Foundation. The Outstanding 50 Year Lawyer Award was the first award established by the Texas Bar Foundation in The award recognizes attorneys whose practice has spanned 50 years or more, and who adhere to the highest principles and traditions of the legal profession and service to the public.

A Farewell to Spider Bynum Arlen Dean Spider Bynum (JD 63) was a fighter in the ring and in the courthouses of Texas. He fought his last fight on March 25, He was 77. Besides family, his dog Freckles, and a host of friends, Bynum had two passions in life: law and boxing. Bynum began the practice of law in 1963 after having graduated from Abilene High School in 1953, Abilene Christian College in 1957, and Baylor Law School in 1963, where he was a member of the Delta Pheta Pi fraternity. He learned his craft under the tutelage and mentorship of legendary trial lawyer Henry Strasburger. Bynum was a great trial lawyer, known for his ability to quickly memorize the names of jurors, deliver a devastating cross-examination, move quickly on his feet, use his deft sense of humor in the courtroom, and for rarely suffering a defeat. Even when you lost to Bynum, you couldn t be mad at him, for he always slipped you several cartoon caricatures he had drawn of you during the trial. He was a very talented cartoonist. Bynum practiced primarily as an insurance defense lawyer, first with Strasburger & Price, then with his own firms, Atwell Malouf Musslewhite & Bynum, Bradshaw & Bynum, and finally as a solo practitioner in

5 the Law Offices of Arlen Dean Spider Bynum. Toward the end of his career, Bynum proved his talent and creativity by practicing both as a plaintiff and defense trial lawyer. By vote of his peers, Bynum was listed in Best Lawyers of America from 1983 through He received the highest possible AV rating by Martindale Hubbell, with an overall peer rating of 5 out of 5. In 2012, Bynum was selected into the Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers. He had been named a Super Lawyer by Texas Monthly ever since its inception. Bynum was admitted to practice before all Texas state and federal courts, the United States Supreme Court, and the United States Courts of Appeal for the Fifth and Eleventh Circuits. Bynum was an old-school lawyer. His word was his bond. A handshake sealed the deal. Opposing lawyers learned quickly that confirming agreements, depositions or trial dates in writing was a personal affront to Bynum that could result in a visit by Bynum at your door ready to engage in his second passion boxing. In other words, if Bynum said it was going to happen, it was going to happen without the necessity of written confirmation. Bynum s love of boxing began when he stepped into the Golden Gloves ring in Abilene as a flyweight. He was immediately tagged by coach Jack Turner with the nickname Spider because of his long, skinny arms. Rumor has it Bynum fought successfully in every weight class from flyweight to heavyweight, but no one knows for sure how many fights he won for all news reports of his amateur boxing career have mysteriously disappeared. Bynum was chief of officials for the Dallas Regional Golden Gloves Tournament for more than 30 years. He judged more than 30 professional fights, including bouts involving Larry Holmes, Salvador Sanchez, and Julio Chavez. He refereed at least 11 professional bouts and supervised the Mike Tyson/Pinklon Thomas bout in Bynum was a strong advocate for boxing safety and was the primary drafter of the Muhammad Ali Boxing Reform Act in support of which he testified before Congress in He was an NABF legal advisor, WBC Special U.S. counselor, and was appointed to the Texas Board of Licensing & Regulation by Gov. Ann Richards. In 1989, he was president of the Dallas All Sports Association, the primary sponsoring organization for the Dallas Regional Golden Gloves Tournament. In 2009, Bynum was the first inductee into the Ring Talk s Wall of Fame. A trip into Bynum s law office was like touring a boxing museum. On his wall were autographed photographs of every major professional fighter of the last 40 years, from Muhammad Ali to George Foreman to Joe Frazier to Mike Tyson to Sugar Ray Leonard to his closest personal boxing friend, Dallas own welterweight champion Curtis Cokes. Bynum was a strong believer and advocate for civil rights. He was more than just a lawyer, boxing judge or referee. He also was considered by many to be one of the best, most honest, hard-working men in the

6 boxing world. When the WBC stripped Graciano Rocchigiani of his 175 lb. title for the purpose of giving it to Roy Jones Jr., Bynum, then a lawyer representing the WBC and a member of the Board of Governors, resigned his position with the WBC in protest. Bynum was predeceased by his parents, Alma May and Charles Preston Bynum. He is survived by his wife of 53 years, whom he met on a blind date, Charlsie; Amy Bynum, son-in-law, Dwayne King, and granddaughter, Ella; Angela Bynum and John Neese; Andrea Bynum and husband, Chris Smith; Luke Kempf, and grandson, Bryan Charles Bynum-Kempf; father-in-law, Dr. Robert Nystrom; and his pets Freckles, Maggie, Ali, and Boots.

In Memoriam Reese Parker Andrews (JD 82) passed away March 2, 2013 at the age of 62 in Nacogdoches from

14 complications associated with pancreatic cancer. In the words of almost everyone who knew Reese s exuberance for life, He sure crammed a lot into every day all 62 years of his life. Born Dec. 8, 1950 in Fort Worth, he was the son of U.S. Army Ret. Colonel Robert Parker Andrews and Selma Louise Andrews. He spent his boyhood years traveling with his family, finally settling in Weatherford the spring of his sixth-grade year.

Andrews served in a variety of capacities during his service in the Reserve, oftentimes spending summers abroad in Europe.

He eventually attended jump school and earned his wings at Fort Benning in October Upon receiving a substantial scholarship, Andrews returned to school in Texas, graduating from Baylor Law School in May He began practicing law that fall and soon married the love of his life, Carolyn Louise Pennebaker, in June Carolyn earned her law degree at Baylor soon after, and in September 1992, the two of them moved to Nacogdoches, where they opened their own law firm, Andrews & Andrews. Carolyn stopped practicing with Andrews when their first child, Parker, was born.

He and his family were members of Grace Bible Church, where Andrews served as a Sunday school teacher for the college class and the fifth- and sixth-grade combined class. They have been active members of Grace Covenant Presbyterian Church since August Andrews is survived by his mother, Louise Andrews; his best friend and wife, Carolyn; his sons, Parker and Payton; his daughter, Annaleigh; his sisters, Bekki Andrews and Gini Andrews Chesney; his mother-in-law, Joan Pennebaker; his brother-in-law, Doug Pennebaker and wife, Karrie; and nieces and nephews including Sara Clark, and Stephen, Rebecca and Hannah Chesney.

He and Doris sang in the choir at FUMC and were honored by the church when they retired from the choir after 58 years. After his retirement from the VA, Dudley joined the Baylor University Senior Choir, known as the Baylor Singing Seniors. He developed a love of flowers from his mother and was an avid iris gardener. Dudley s extensive library is a testimony to his love of reading, art, and history.

He was a treasurer for the Odell Dudley Sunday School Class for nine years, assisting in the Fruit Cake Sale Project each fall. The class is named for Dudley s mother, who taught the class for more than 40 years. Doris mother taught them both to play bridge, and Dudley and Doris had many years of pleasure playing duplicate bridge with friends and also at Sul Ross Bridge Studio. They loved to travel, planning many trips and cruises for seniors at FUMC. Dudley loved people and had a caring and loving personality.
